Pa’lante Fellowship Program

The Pa’lante Fellowship Program provides a $1,000 scholarship to graduate students from underrepresented backgrounds. The need-based fellowship aims to provide underrepresented and/or first-generation students with mentorship for support in academic success and professional development.
